754 Glenmore Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The three-story, two-family house at 754 Glenmore Avenue in East New York, owned by Uma Sampath, has experienced several significant issues since 2018, most notably concerning illegal conversions and plumbing problems. The building, constructed in 1901, has been the subject of multiple complaints and violations regarding unauthorized cellar occupancy, including an illegal kitchen with gas stove and bathroom installations.

Three Class B violations from July 2018 remain Open, citing unlawful cooking spaces, unauthorized plumbing fixtures, and illegal multiple dwelling occupancy contrary to the Certificate of Occupancy records. The property has a documented history of plumbing issues, particularly in mid-2020, with multiple complaints regarding water supply problems and basin/sink issues, though inspections resulted in no violations being issued. Additional complaints from 2018 included reports of unsanitary conditions (pests) and a slow water leak, both of which were closed without violations.

The building's rather extensive history includes certain Environmental Control Board violations from late 2018 related to failure to correct violations and work performed without proper permits, with associated penalties totaling $4,725. Most recently, a partial vacate order was served in May 2024 concerning illegal cellar occupancy, though previous complaints had been closed with denied access for inspection in 2019. The property has shown some environmental compliance, passing a rodent inspection in 2012, and has had certain permits issued in late 2018 for electrical and plumbing work.
